green living

dezeen magazine just posted this today and i found it interesting. and while i wouldn't really consider myself to be an earthy crunchy person, i do my part for the environment. i recycle. i cut those tabs on 6-packs so little duckies don't get stuck. i don't litter. i bring reusable bags for groceries. but the green movement is getting bigger, and more popular (luckily), and rightfully so. it's only a matter of time until this fad becomes a reality we all must live with. and knowing it can be done as attractive as the following examples i just don't see how anyone could resist!

the ethical kitchen by alexandra sten jørgensen


both are designed to use waste products to grow plants! who wouldn't want a cute little garden in their kitchen anyway? plants always make me very happy, i'm just not good at keeping them alive...

a great quote by jørgensen: "the intention is to make ethical living functional and more attractive whilst providing an understanding of how nature and consumption are connected." true true.
